Selling a Business in Arizona

Selling a business after years of work can be extremely profitable. Many businesses are created with the hopes that they will one day be acquired by a larger firm. The sale can be complicated, however. There are Federal and Arizona laws concerning mergers, acquisitions, negotiations and securities exchanges that must be followed.

How Do I Sell a Business?

To sell a business there must be an offer, whether it is solicited or not. Purchase agents in Camp Verde not only help to secure an offer, but also lends advice about which offers are worthwhile to consider. Determining the correct value for the rights you are selling is critical in this process. To do this, financial statements must be updated and prepared to comply with Arizona and Federal law. As a final step, an agreement for the purchase will be reached, typically in the form of a written contract. It should be reviewed by all parties to ensure that what was agreed upon is accurately presented.

What Will I Give Up in the Business?

Essentially, the sale of a business entails the passing of a right known as ?control?. With control of a business, a party may direct its operations and dispose of its property as it sees fit. The right of control can be separated easily from the business, and this often leads the buyers in Camp Verde to be less interested in other rights within the company. In fact, buyers generally leave other rights, such as the right to future earnings, with the sellers so that they can acquire control more cheaply. Negotiations become vital in light of these particularities, and each party should use negotiations as an opportunity to make plain their intentions and concerns.

03/22/2010Ms. G. was just the lawyer that I needed! She was better than the Superior rating! I had tried to get a lawyer through my employee assistance program and that particular person did not return the call that I made twice to him until 2 weeks later! I knew that person was not who I wanted to represent me! Ms. G. was professional, responded quickly and her secretary Shirley was wonderful as well! Thank you both & thank you LegalMatch!
Sincerly,
Donna

02/15/2010The attorney that represented me from this firm was totally outstanding, David Goldfarb. He is a very bright intelligent attorney that is at the top of his career right now. In the first five seconds he did something for me that proved to me that he was the right attorney and he was. My son now currently has sole custody of my grand-daughter, we can sleep at night knowing that she is safe.
You rock David, I will always recommend you to any of my co-workers any time I hear that someone needs an attorney.
Thank you again David!
Sincerely,
Michelle Garland

12/29/2008I actually met with Michele Kunzman at the law firm G., Shields, & Associates, P.A.
I met with her for one hour only for a consultation to see whether or not I had grounds for a case. Michele was very professional, friendly and knowledgeable. She explained the law to me in terms that I could understand. Unfortunately, I don't have a strong enough case to pursue the matter. I was very pleased with the way Michele Kunzman conducted the consultation and would highly recommend her to friends or family members.

07/16/2008Ms. G. is still working on my case. She has been so kind, understanding and smart beyond all else. This is not her first rodeo. She does not talk down to me. She makes me feel comfortable, and I feel as if I have an entire team behind me, not just her. I feel she is working toward the same goal that I have... as I am not looking to WIN, but I am looking for what type of custody arrangement will best take care of my children and how to best take care of myself along the way. I researched numerous lawyers, had countless referals, personally spoke with about 15 attorneys, and she has gone out of her way to provide kind, artful human service. I am not a case number and I appreciate that. Thank you Legal Match

03/17/2008Ms. G. has taken an interest in my case. She has reacted to the information that I have given her and feels that I have a "good chance" on winning my case and getting custody of my son. She is working in my best interests and my son's, as well.

05/07/2014Mr. Z. is very professional on both a client-to-client level and in the courtroom. He was successful in obtaining a release order from the Judge, and in negotiating a settlement with the Prosecutor's Office. He is attentive, pleasant, and makes himself available to the client.
I would highly recommend his legal services. His staff is exceptional as well.

05/08/2013I hired Steven W. Z. after he responded to my plea for help on Legal Match. Mr. Z. represented me on two different cases. My GF ex tried pressing criminal assault charges on me as well as an injunction of harassment, both cases were detrimental to my lively hood and career. Mr. Z. did everything he said he was going to do from the beginning to the end. He treated me like family. Not only did he win both of my cases but he won in very impressive fashion. He laid a smack down on the other party for sure! I was very impressed in both trials and he won without even having to call to stand any of my witnesses! I cant say how grateful I am! Mr. Z. has been an attorney for over thirty years and it shows. If he ever says to you "I do what I do!" He means it and is good at it!

He takes pride in what he does and is always there to answer your questions in a timely manner either in email or phone format. He keeps in touch with us on a daily basis.

May God bless him in everything that he does!

I am truly grateful. I recommend him to anyone who is charged with a crime.

02/05/2013Mr. Z. knows how to keep his calm. He thoroughly knows the ins and outs of his business, and he uses this knowledge to the advantage of his client. I'm the nosy type that wants to know and control everything. Mr. Z. did a great job handling both my anxiety and the case. My case was completely dismissed and I can't be happier. If only he lets more information out and involves his client on what is really going on, I'd have given him 5 stars. Nonetheless, he is a lawyer to be reckoned with.
